Hi everyone: I live in Miami, Florida. We're thinking of moving to Lexington. I have a brother who lives in Harrodsburg (1hour SW of Lex) with his family. My other brother (and his family) wants to leave Miami to move to Harrodsburg (the heat is worsening his multiple sclerosis). Family is very important to us, so we're seriously considering Lexington for a move. Can you give me any advice in terms of what areas are good to live in if you have kids in grade school? I'm a new nurse (2nd career nurse), my husband's a high school teacher. Guess I'd work at UK or St Joe. (I've been trying to learn about Lexington on line). What areas would you suggest in terms of looking for a house or townhouse to buy? Are the schools okay or should we consider the private school route? (My husband teaches in the public high schools in Miami. Our kids go to public school here at a good elementary school that I got them transfered into. Some public schools in Miami leave a lot to be desired, you really have to know how to work the system.) Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Hi everyone: I'm new here. Just discovered these boards. What a great community! There ARE a lot of nice nurses out there. You guys seem willing to share information in order to help each other out and lift each other up. I'm almost done w/ my nursing program, and to my great frustration I still don't know what area of nursing I want to work in. I find myself constantly asking the nurses I meet how they decided what area to go for. As a result, my final project is a survey about how folks decided what area of nursing they chose to work in right out of school and how that turned out for them. I'd be grateful if you could take a few minutes and answer a few questions. 1. What area of nursing did you work in right out of school? 2. How did you end up there? (choice or chance or a little of both) 3. Was that area your 1st choice? 4. Did you stay (or do you think you WILL stay) in that area of nursing more than 2 years? 5. If not, why not? Thanks so much! I'm kind of hoping to learn from the experience of others and share this info with my classmates, lots of us are confused!
